Si Henry Purcell de son tombeau pouvait entendre cette version magistrale de son King Arthur... Pour une fois des cuivres pas trop criards, un récitant adéquate et tout le reste, d'une telle justesse de ton... On voit que tous les interprètes vivent entièrement cette oeuvre qui, à mon avis, est une des plus belles de tous les temps. Alors malgré les guerres, la pollution et le réchauffement, ça nous montre ce que l'Homme est capable de sortir lorsqu'il donne le meilleur de lui même. Jean-Richard Monthoux en Suisse Romande
